On this trip I don't think we ever saw a car until we were almost done and then it didn't matter so much.

I carry water in my car. I would give it up to anyone that needed it. However it wouldn't be cold.

We saw more cars end of November. Good job doing those Shafer rd switchbacks, I find them... hm... petrifying!

I love the switchbacks! I have ridden up them and down. I don't think they are as terrifying on a bike. You have lots of room as compared to a car.

Now that you mention the switchbacks I guess we did have several cars pass us on the switchbacks. I remember them all commenting on how much easier it is to ride in the car versus riding up them on the bike![emoji23] I couldn't argue.
